Objects that could pose a danger if the appliance were accidentally switched on should not be stored in the cooking space or the heatable ap­pliance drawer. Do not store food or any temperature-sensitive or inflam­mable materials, e.g. cleaning agents, oven sprays, etc., in the cooking space or the heatable appliance drawer.
For appliances with grill: Leave the appliance door closed when grilling. The heat could otherwise damage the operating and display elements or the fit­ted units above.

Caution: Risk of burns!

The appliance gets very hot when in use. The appliance door also gets hot.
Steam and/or hot air may escape from the cooking space when the appli-
ance door is opened.
